WOMAN Article from the fen ol i. A VIRGINIA LADY'S IDEAS. KENO AKD -THUBSDAV DEOEMB.B 1894. BEAL BSTATB SWINDLE. California a EDITOR I do not know a reason why women should not rote if they desire to do to.

Six years ago in the Nevada Anembly I took tliia position, and offered then to vote for Buch a bill as would provide election at which vote, so that as women only manv de TUtUi sired might Rive legal expression to their opinions on that one question. II at such election, a careful census having first been made of all the women, a majority ol all who would be entitled to vote should favor woman then I would support the movement heartily. I was confident that men would generally take the game view, The lino of action which I had suggested was approved in public on the same day by Speaker Coffin and other members of the Assembly. There were then present Mvernl active advocates of woman suffrage, who heard all that was said. A bill to carry out the suggestion could easily have been passed.

Had tliis been done we would long ago hav known whether or not a majority of Nevada's women deoire to vote. For iome reason made public no such bill WUB introduced. While the inaction of 'he prppon- onto of woman suffrage at that lime led uio lo doubt the existence ol a general desire on the part ol women to vote, my opinion as to their right in the mutter remains the same, no new light having come to prove it ThS' principle of equality in the raartrtffiSfc; now.

Shall wo try it? to know what will Work and A real estate agent, representing real estate dealers in San Francisco, visited Keno and Wadsworth last nuuiraer with a scheme to sell town lots, situated in Southern California, on tho "Installment" plan.

His scheme was this: Purchasers paid $10 down on each lot, and agreed Uvsn ll i -pay per week on every purchas until they were paid for. The lot being valued at $126 and $150 each, One of the victims has been investigating his purchase of lots and from hm been satis- Kaling IllB u. Fellers he has received has been fled that the scheme is the rankesl kind of a swindle. Another violim IH now down there and writes that the lots are practically worthless. The agent represented an electric street railway running through the tract, wlille the truth is the street railroad not built at all.

Another inducement made was that tho new main overland East ran through the town and a big hotel was to be erected on the town site, all of which wan false, be- 'cause this line does not come within two miles ol touching the town, and the '-hotel" is in the aim future. The agent, so it is said, succeeded in Belling quite a number of lots in Reno Wadsworth, Bodie, Grass Valley and other towns His victims were quite Ulve Woman the Kl.ht of All Will Be Well.

I can only answer for myself, and that IB that I shall never favor such a proposition; that I have to much respect for Ihe sex; believing lhat woman was crested for a nobler and higher place on earth, than to dabble in the low pool of politics.
